Maya Jama says ‘I’ll be as involved as I can’ as Love Island fans make airtime comparison | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV

Islanders will continue to be offered “inclusive language” training covering disability, sexuality, race, and ethnicity, and microaggressions, introduced in May last year.

Dr Matthew Gould, a consultant chartered clinical psychologist who is also part of the duty of care team, explained why the new rules were necessary in the first place.

He said: “The enhanced safeguards introduced for Love Island 2023 demonstrate ITV’s commitment to evolve duty of care protocols to minimise harm, where possible.

“The bold decision to pause islanders’ social media activity during the new series is testament to ITV’s serious intent, especially as this input provides both a benefit to the appeal of the programme and a potential source of mental health problems.”
